    Bottle Value and ID Help

    I have recently found this bottle at a yard sale and I would like to know its approximate value. I have looked many times for this bottle on the internet and have only found ones with pontil marks. As you can see in the pictures below you there isn't a pontil mark on the bottom of the bottle. The front of the bottle has the words "Dr. J. F. CHURCHILL'S SPECIFIC REMEDY FOR CONSUMPTION" embossed on it. The right side of the bottle has the words "HYPOPHOSPHITES OF LIME AND SODA" embossed on it and the left side of the bottle has the words "J. WINCHESTER NEW YORK'' embossed on it. The seam line extends most of the way to the neck of the bottle which implies that the bottle was made from 1860-1880. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    That's a nice bottle Minkey, but I'm not very familiar with stuff from outside of New England, so I can't help you price wise. I'd try posting it on antique-bottles.net. There are a LOT of very friendly and knowledgeable folks over there, especially on medicine bottles. Good luck, and keep hitting those yard sales!!
